De largo aliento, with Sayak Valencia

On November 9th we are organising De largo aliento, a breakfast/talk with Sayak Valencia. A break that she will give us between the presentations of her latest work, Postales de R. The book will serve as a pretext to move some reflections and around the most ostensible faces or the most veiled consequences around working progress; the unfinished or long-term processes that accompany the works.

This session is part of the OLLA. Common Research Programme, an accompaniment structure made up of a series of occasions to test some intuitions, vectors or collective areas of research, based on the set of specificities driven by the group of resident artists. OLLA tries to identify what sections or what research interests/ Practice they request openings or shared situations, inhabiting all possible degrees between what is no longer private and what is open to the public.
